SHOOTER: CHRIS PETRIE

Name: Chris Petrie
Age: 23
Location: Aberdeen, UK

How long have you been shooting?
I guess about 3 years.

Film or digital? (why)
I like digital, just for convenience. Would be cool to do some Medium format stuff though.

Best thing you’ve ever shot?
One that comes to mind is Lewis Watson doing a curved wallride over Mingo and James Hitchcox, they’re pure sh***ing themselves!

Fave rider to shoot with?
Simon Gibb or pro Bandy.

Dream rider to shoot with?
No one in particular, perhaps just some trails guys with great style - there’s no trails here, which is a shame, so I’ve never had the chance to do any trails photos.

What do you tell security when the try to throw you out of spots for taking pics?
Haven’t had too much bother with it, maybe next time I’ll ask if I can take their photo though!

Fave BMX photographer?
Have quite a few, probably Keith Romanowski though.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Hopefully not stuck with my 9-5 routine!
